Legs, Chest, Triceps (germ season)

Still a bit sick, and was feeling pretty terrible yesterday morning. Felt OK by the evening, though, and better today than yesterday. Seems to be germ season, or I know have new level of allergies I’ve never dealt with before. I still blame the little kids – they’re everywhere. LOL…

Note: My current PowerBlock gym split is based on the Phase 2 workout in the Size Surge Workout e-book plus TORQ sequences from the 4X Mass Workout 2.0 e-book.

Summary: Today was a good training session, but it was hard work. It always is, but not usually this hard. I had a nice dose of nasal discharge running down my throat on leg work, and high-rep squats are nauseating enough on their own. Needless to say, it was a great ab workout, too, as I went into major dry heaves after every set. It was almost funny. Almost. Felt much better once I finished legs and moved on to chest, though. Good pump and great burn. Plus, I’ve further increased tension times by adding X Reps back in at the end of most final sets.
